| #2 JohnQC, I can't access your link from my work site (NSFW), but the information in the original post makes a LOT of sense. A computer (the server or a workstation on the local, on-site network) was rebooted, probably under pretext of applying patches, but booted to a Linux installation on a large capacity USB drive. Linux has this capability to allow people to "try out" a specific flavor of Linux without installing it on a hard drive, and thus not lose their Windows installation. This reboot bypasses the Windows workstation/server protection software intended to monitor, record, and block activities *just like this*, for later auditing. The installation was a stand-alone boot, which allowed the drive to be overwritten with the data being copied. The command used to copy the files updates the time-stamp with the current time. The time difference between the youngest and oldest copied files, divided into the total size of all the files copied, gives a rough speed at which the files were written. The copy speed was 23mb per second: way too high for this to have been done over the internet, which is how a *Russian* hacker could have moved the data off the server after they hacked into it. However, the speed is consistent with a copy to a USB drive inserted into the server. It could have been done using a workstation provided it was a typical 100Megabit or top-of-the-line 1 Gigabit network, and done at a time when it would be very lightly loaded (i.e. at the dead of night, with nobody else around on the network.) Yeah, it was an inside job. I cannot address, however, the validity of the accusation that the Guccifer 2.0 "hacking" of these data files was actually a false-flag operation conducted by the DNC to discredit the Wikileaks released. However, I know that a lot of IT security organizations would know how to do it, who also would have been in the tank for the Democrats (especially if well compensated). |

| #1 A little more detail. Does this make sense IT types? |
